Wedding hog roast in Ferring, carved to order
A hog roast gives your wedding a centrepiece: guests gather, the chef carves and the crackling disappears fast. It feels like an occasion. We serve spit-roast lamb, crackling and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for wedding breakfasts with sides and post-wedding gatherings.
A farm or garden wedding near Ferring suits a hog roast. We need level ground, cover and a way in. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your guests.

Planners, venues and businesses
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

What happens on the day
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we do not need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. At a December wedding in Ferring, it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then quote.
- We agree timings with your venue coordinator.
- The hog roasts through the afternoon; our chef carves on cue.
- We serve, tidy up and slip away.
Before we arrive
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival

Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Ferring
We’re gathering after a service at St Andrew's Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What’s the nearest station to Ferring?
Goring-By-Sea station, about 0.9 miles north-east of the centre.
Can we have both pork and lamb?
Lamb and chicken are both available alongside the hog.
Can we just hire the roaster?
DIY machine hire is available. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Where will the roaster go at our wedding?
Outside, under its own cover, a safe distance from the marquee. Serving inside is fine where allowed.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Will our venue allow a hog roast?
It depends on the venue. Ask your venue early, and we will liaise with them.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
